Gudipadwa, oh joyous day, When new beginnings come our way, The sun shines bright, the sky so blue, As we celebrate, our spirits renew. The streets are alive with sound and cheer, As people gather far and near, To mark the start of a brand new year, With hope and faith, devoid of fear. The gudi is hoisted high and proud, With neem leaves, flowers, and a cloth shroud, Symbolizing triumph, victory, and power, As we welcome the auspicious hour. The air is filled with fragrant scent, Of sweets, savories, and flowers spent, As we feast and share with all around, The love and joy that we have found. So let us raise our voices high, And sing and dance beneath the sky, For Gudipadwa, the day of light, And all the blessings it brings in sight.

Life, like the sea, is ever-changing and wild, With its own set of waves, that make you smile. It has its calm moments, where all is still, And then it brings the storms, with such a thrill. Just like the sea, life can be so vast, An endless journey, from the present to the past. With each new tide, a new adventure awaits, And the journey never ends, in an endless debate. The sea is full of mysteries, untold and unseen, Life too, has its own secrets, waiting to be gleaned. It holds within its depths, an untold story, And so does life, with its own history. The sea is a symbol, of life's constant flow, With its own highs and lows, it continues to grow. It teaches us to adapt, to weather the storm, And to keep moving forward, despite the form. So let us embrace life, like the sea, with open arms, And take on its challenges, with courage and charm. For just like the sea, life is beautiful and free, And offers us a chance, to live and be. ©
